It was good to be back at the one place I could be myself and that felt like home. Don't get me wrong I miss my actual home with my mom, dad, and sister. However, I needed to get away from my mother. She wants me to be someone I'm not. But, before I get into that, let me introduce myself.
My name is Lilith Delphinium. I am currently the professor of care of Non-Magical Creatures at Hogwarts. I happen to be the Eldest Child of Hades and Persephone. Yes, that is correct, my parents are gods who run the Underworld. I am the goddess of life and death. My job is to watch over souls and either bring the soul to their new body or to help their souls depart from their bodies and take them to my father.
I am the creator of dementors and werewolves and have dominion over them. I control the seasons of fall and winter when everything is dying. I am in charge of producing blood lust in humans. I also am the one who creates diseases and spreads them around the world. Lastly, I am the goddess of Tartarus. I guard the gates and forge the chains that contain the most evil of the gods.
I also have a twin sister. Her name is Aristeia Muse. She takes more after our mother. She is the goddess of literature and inspiration. She is the creator of vampires and thestrals. She has dominion over them as well as the seasons spring and summer.
When I say I am the daughter of Hades the image that comes to your mind is probably exactly how I look. I have long black to blue hair. Pale skin and have a love of the dark. My sister is the opposite of that she has white to lavender hair with a slightly darker complexion. My sister and I are polar opposites but at the same time we are almost identical. We have a revenge form and are easily angered; my form is long white hair with ice blue eyes. My sister has long black hair with ice blue eyes in her form. I am more like my father. I prefer to be in one place. I am dedicated to my job. I am set in my ways.
I gravitate towards the things of the dark. My sister, Ari, is a wandering spirit who cannot wait to explore new things. She loves all things new. She is also more laidback. Ari also loves the gray and light things of life. Many days we fight but we love each other very much.
My mother and I don't really get along. She wants me to be more free-spirited. I am more than happy to be rooted. It got to the point where my mother was pushing me to be told my father I could not take it anymore. I told him and my sister goodbye and I left. Not long after I left my twin left. She felt pressured by my dad to become more like me.
When I left, I went around the world to view the different wars and fight alongside different groups. I also went throughout the different time periods seeing how things change and how people never really change. I also had a few lovers across the years but never tied myself down to one man, creature, or god.
I created my first dark creature. I created the first werewolf. He was nothing like what they are now. I created a man that on the full moon turned completely into a wolf. Over the years people and wizards polluted my creation with poisons and potions that mixed the man and wolf. During this time, I lost myself in hatred for my mother that I wanted to hurt some of her favorite beings: humans. So, I created a creature that stole all happiness from them.
However, soon I became very anxious. I wanted a home, some place to settle down. I was not made to wander from place to place, unlike my sister who wanted to travel. Little did I know that my sister was getting to fulfill those dreams.
In my pursuit to find a home I found Hogwarts but long before it was a school. I met and became friends with the four founders of the school when they were first starting to plan the school. I quickly made friends with them. Though I must confess I had a particular liking for Slytherin. I was very glad when they actually started to build the school. I was finally getting my home as the four had asked me to stay and teach at the school. For many years I taught the Dark Arts at Hogwarts. During this time, I watched my friends slowly turn on one another and then pass away. The final straw was watching Salazar die.
After that I left and when throughout Europe most mortals remember this time for the Black Plague that I spread across the world. I was hurting and decided that everyone else should as well. After four years of spreading the plague I went dormant and just mourned the loss of my friends.
